Re T350 rubber

[MADT350]

I wonder if anyone can tell me what make/model of rubber the T350 came with when new.

Also what is the best rubber you can put on the t350 that suites it best...(cost not a issue)

many thanks

Originally I believe it was Toyo proxes T1S (which had a specific TVR fit) these have now been replaced with Toyo proxes T1R.

I have Goodyear Eagle F1's fitted.

F1s were standard from cars built 2004 onwards.

F1's give superior grip in wet weather especially standing water, in my experience.

Which is nice

Good Year F1's road, Dunlop Direza track or nice dry summers day

Toyo

F1's

Running T1Rs on the car. Really like most of the characteristics (having run F1s, T1Ss, S03s, etc). Only curious thing is they seem to lock up under braking more readily. Might just be my brake bias, though.

i had toyo T1-S's before and T1-R's now, ,think they are great (sidewalls a tad soft) and i will use them again if i dont opt for some R888's next time.

T1-R's here too - seem better than the T1-s's that were on it when I got the car.....

I heard F1s were a dry weather tyre?

Nope, great all rounder. Work very well in the wet.

Got F1s on mine, wider rears (255/35s).

does that aid grip at all?

[EnjyBenjy]

Dunno,I went from bald 235s to brand new 255s! Looks pretty cool, had no rubbing issues either.

I've got good year F1's on mine and so far have found them better in the wet than T1-R's but very close in the dry. I also opted for wider rear tyres but chickened out and got 245's as they said 255's might be a bit too wide for the actual rim width.

dealer replaced my rears for T-R's as part of PDI and boy are the slippery - need to bed them in fast!

F1's for road and a set of 888's standing by.
